I just completed the WI hunter Safty Instructor course recently. I was just curious as to who else out there is an instructor and where are you located?
I dunno about tips. for me, my goal was to help them fall in love with the outdoors. that's what i'd tell them in the beginning. this isn't about going out and killing something. this was about falling head over heels in love with God's creation, leaving it better than you found it, and going home safe and sound to the people that you love.
Congratulations! We need all the HS instructors we can get, it spreads the load out and brings a lot more to the classes. I'm in Barron county, a HSI for since the mid 90's; I took it really personal when a HS grad had a hunting accident. It help, to remember the HS grads I DID HELP and that have been hunting safer because of me and fellow HS instructors.
